Important
This documentation covers IPython versions 6.0 and higher. Beginning with version 6.0, IPython stopped supporting compatibility with Python versions lower than 3.3 including all versions of Python 2.7.
If you are looking for an IPython version compatible with Python 2.7, please use the IPython 5.x LTS release and refer to its documentation (LTS is the long term support release).
Module: utils.capture
IO capturing utilities.
3 Classes
- class IPython.utils.capture.RichOutput(data=None, metadata=None, transient=None, update=False)
Bases:
object
- __init__(data=None, metadata=None, transient=None, update=False)
- class IPython.utils.capture.CapturedIO(stdout, stderr, outputs=None)
Bases:
object
Simple object for containing captured stdout/err and rich display StringIO objects
Each instance
c
has three attributes:c.stdout
: standard output as a stringc.stderr
: standard error as a stringc.outputs
: a list of rich display outputs
Additionally, there’s a
c.show()
method which will print all of the above in the same order, and can be invoked simply viac()
.- __init__(stdout, stderr, outputs=None)
- property outputs
A list of the captured rich display outputs, if any.
If you have a CapturedIO object
c
, these can be displayed in IPython using:from IPython.display import display for o in c.outputs: display(o)
- show()
write my output to sys.stdout/err as appropriate
- property stderr
Captured standard error
- property stdout
Captured standard output
